(...) Not sure what you mean by boat plates. Both gundams use only various angle plates stuck together for the outer armor. Probably the only really unusual parts are the rubber hovercraft skirts used for the black Gundam's wing thrusters. As for (...) (24 years ago, 25-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Thanks. The Gundams are big enough to use the Falcon as a boogie board, surfing the exoatmosphere. Both were equally fun to build. The advantage of Gundams though is that there can be infinite variations. I could build a dozen different (...) (24 years ago, 25-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

This is a Baroque villa based on Villa Amerika, in Prague (1720). I'm afraid that not all of the ornamentation comes through in the LEGO version.

That is possibly the coolest mech I've seen in a long time. It reminds me of ED-209 from Robocop, and I've always loved that design. I'm feeling inspired, I think I'll go and try to build my own mech along those desing lines. Thanks for the (...) (24 years ago, 24-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
